She's my fave pro, her and Matt are fantastic. She better be back for pro dances, or I will cry!

Why can't BBC bosses give her celebs with half a chance at learning to dance?

I'm annoyed at her going too - I still think there should be no exits until the second (or even third) show.

yeah I agree, its unfair she never has a good celeb and I would have loved to have seen more of her. Am sure she will be back for pro dances thought. The pro dance last night was fantastic. Am sure the bbc have morer up their sleeve for the next weeks

did anyone else notice that that daft old brush, bruce, said she was one of the new pros?

probably because she's always out so quickly.

I noticed that too! She wasn't out that quickly in S2 though. He's just stupid and annoying!

On the up sided, we get her on ITT on monday!

Poor nicole!
I actually thought matt was the worst last night (although Im a darren and lilia fan) - i though nicholas looked like great fun and it would have been nice to see more of him.

I think that it is a great shame that Nicole has been knocked out well before she had the chance to showcase her fantastic abilities. Nick seemed very motivated and dedicated and he could well have pulled off a decent Tango had he been given the opportunity to return.

The only "compensation" I can think of is that Nicole has the opportunity to demonstrate her skills through her partnership with Matt. I loved seeing them dancing the Paso together in the professional demonstration. And my guess is that she will be supporting him now that he is still in the competition.

That confused me so much! i was sure i recognised her but i couldn't place her, who have been her partners in the past?

Nicole's previous partner in the second Strictly series was the gardening presenter, Diarmuid Gavin, who could be spotted seated amongst the celebrity guests. She didn't take part in series one or three.

Nicole's far too good for the show anyway !

At leats you dont need to split your loyalties between her and matt now, becca!

Haha, that's true. I'm still sad she left!! We will see her back though in the pro dances I hope!

I have high hopes for Matt and Carol. And even if she's terrible, I won't be watching her anyway! Matt's so hot when he dances, and Nicole's fantastic. They make a brilliant partnership, I'd love to see them dance together live.

Aw, after Diarmuid I thought she deserved someone with a bit of rhythmn! Mind you, I quite liked him at the time - I thought he showed a lot of perserverance!

Also spotted Brucies gaff. Thought Nicole was kind not to correct him!

Oh aye, the remaining Cutler all the way!

Yeh I was so angry when Bruccie said she was new to the show. If I'd have been her I'd have corrected him, but shes too sweet for that.

I was in a panic at the end, my two favourite female professionals were in the last two! Why can't Camilla, Lillia or Erin be kicked out near the beginning for a change. fairs fair.

Yeah I wanted Erin to go but seeing I had to vote to save I couldn't possibly hatch a plan to boot her out...

I'm sad we've lost nicole so early, she's a fantastic dancer and was very unlucky with all of the strong males in the competition this year that she was lgiven one of the weakest. I really like Erin and Peter, but will def be supporting Carol and Matt just as much as he's fabulous!

Probably because Lilia and Erin never get partnered with an "oldie", which seems to be the kiss of death. Camilla did have that orange man in the first series though, and got knocked out in the second show. Think next year Erin and Lilia should get a partner who isn't an athlete for a change!

I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo upset that Nicole has gone you wouldn't beleive! I actually cried I was devastated for her! She is such an amazing beautiful dancer and really deserves the chance to shine!!!! I hope she comes back next year and I hope they give her a good partner, or a partner who will be able to have a good go at it!!
At least we get to see her and Matt dance in the pro dances which is a conselation!
